Jan Spencer:  

Life Still living in (the North Houston area) New Caney, (and loving it!) after 30 years! Hubby and I also have a weekend home on Lake Brownwood, in Central Texas which we visit every chance we have. My husband J.D. (also from Friona - a 1970 graduate) and I celebrated our 35th wedding anniversary June 2009. We are the proud parents 3 awesome adults (a son and two daughters), a beautiful daughter-in-law, two wonderful sons-in-law, and 8 extremely loved (and, yes, spoiled) grandchildren - the light of our lives! Our oldest grandchild (an inventive young teen boy) was 12 in November 2009. The second (our miss diva) turned 10 in December 2009. Number 3 grandchild (an avid t.v. watching boy) will turn 9 years old in April 2010. Numbers 4 & 5 were born only 13 hours apart but on different days - both boys. Number 4 (curious & very loving) and number 5 (elfishly cute and a permanent smiler) will turn 6 in February 2010. It's almost like having twins with those two being born so close together! Number 6 (little miss diva) shares her birthday with her aunt and will be 3 in April 2010. Number 7 (an always-on-the-move little boy) has about six more months of the terrible twos before turning 3 in June 2010. And number 8 (baby girl with 3 older brothers!) was born in September of 2009. So there you have the quick run-down on our "eight-is-enough" (for these grandparents)grand children. They are each oh so much more complex than the short description I gave for each one. They are all very smart and extremely beautiful little human beings. (I'm not predjuced, my heart has just been hijacked by each one!) J.D. and I find ourselves reliving the days when our children were young by attending the grandchildren's baseball & soccer games, swim meets, dance recitals and other activities. We also buy things we don't...Expand for more
